Not for US(A), bikes you can't buy: Kawasaki

After bringing us the Versys, ER6-n, and the KLX250X Kawasaki doesn't have nearly as many overseas exclusives as Honda. There are a few however.

ZRX1200 DAEG
That's right, they're still selling them in Japan. The ZRX (or "Z rex") has become somewhat of a cult classic after being discontined in the states. In Japan, they got a slight update.
W650/W400
Another classic you could have bought. For a coulple of years Kawasaki offered us the W650, but it never sold very well. It must be a different story in Japan because it comes in 650 and 400 cc sizes.
250 TR
Japan loves retro, here's what appears to be a throw back to those super light bikes of the 1970's.
Z750
In the US we had a Z750, but it went away. In Europe it fared better and lived on as a mini Z1000.
